Progress toward our arrival in Africa is coming along at a record paOur visa applica tions are now in South Africa and we hope they shall soon be returnedto us. How wonderful i t is to see Christian friends catch the vision of faith andjoin with Us- The reality of FAITH is demonstrated in the response of those who seethe real pui^pose of the church is MISSIONS We need to pray that the Lord help usl i f t our eyes from the temporal scene, that seems so real, andlook upon the realityof God,..What God can do with us when we are willing to let Him work through us .

    M A D B T.O . P L y . . ._ - -: After, much deliberation and a lot of invegtigatioi^ ^he decision has been made togo to South; Africa by plane. T had ialways thought i t was choaper to go by boat, butmuch to ouTvamasement we found tha t i t was actually cheaper to f ly. The fare to Souby ship is ^505*00 from New Orleans to Cape Town. This leaves us with thenecessity of gett ing to New Orleans and theii tb Johannesburg .from the Cape. Theplane fare from New York to Johannesburg i s $550^00.Also we can get.to Johannesburg in four days by plane and i t takes a month by shipStewardship,'if time as well as money makes it favorable for us to flyM E E T ANOTHER LIVING L IN K C H U R C HCHRISTIAN CHURCH COPELAND KANSAS.
